Become a founding empress in ancient times with the system

She pretended to be panicked and took a few steps back. The city gate below was already shaking. Due to some concerns, she did not dare to use the Yaksha Spear and could only use the bow and arrow, but it had little effect.

Facing the arrows shot out, almost all of them became points for Da Xitai to gain leverage. Seeing him getting closer and closer to the city wall, Sheng Changan slowly raised his arm.

Just as he was about to step onto the city wall, two arrows pierced his chest, one after the other. His eyes widened in disbelief, and his body fell to the ground from a height of over thirty meters.

Sheng Changan looked up and found that it was Shen Huaizhi and others who had returned. "Open the city gate and fight your way out."

"Yes." The soldiers on the city wall were obviously very excited. Now that Captain Shen was back, Da Xitai could no longer be alive. The situation was almost one-sided.

As soon as Da Xitai died, the soldiers under him fled in all directions. No one wanted to avenge him. Shen Huaizhi drove his horse straight forward with almost no resistance.

Sheng Changan's eyes moved. The confidant in front who was suspected to be Da Xitai seemed to have disappeared. Since the soldiers below had no leader, many of them left in various directions.

Even though Shen Huaizhi and the soldiers attacked from both sides, a small number of people still escaped. A small number of people wanted to grab a civilian to threaten them, but they were shot by the archers who were waiting above.

A farce ended so abruptly. Sheng Changan felt unbelievable. It was too easy. He always felt that he was walking in someone else's calculations step by step.

Moreover, the war is nearing its end, but the system does not prompt that the mission is completed, which makes Sheng Changan feel a little uneasy.

"Sir," County Magistrate Wu's originally cheerful expression returned to normal after seeing Sheng Chang'an's calm gaze. "Sir, do you think there's something wrong?"

Sheng Changan frowned slightly, "It's so strange. I always feel that Da Xitai's death was too easy. It felt like a trap," but they jumped into it by themselves.

"Something is indeed wrong." Shen Huaizhi also came over, with some fresh blood on the corner of his clothes. "Now the Xianbei are almost completely controlled by Ashile. Da Xitai is now more like a discarded pawn."

Shen Huaizhi's eyes showed a thoughtful look. "Also, when I was shooting arrows, the person next to Da Xitai had already noticed it, but he didn't give any warning."

If he had been reminded, it would have been impossible for Da Xitai to die so easily with his strength. This kind of martial arts is at least unique in the world. With his strength, he would probably have been able to fight him to a draw.

This time he was caught off guard. Even though he knew someone had discovered him, he still felt it was a good opportunity. Even if he couldn't kill him, at least being able to injure him would be good enough.

But unexpectedly, the man did not have the slightest intention of warning him. Instead, he immediately gathered the people around him and finally escaped under their cover.

"Who is Ashile?" Judging from his name, he doesn't seem to be a descendant of the Xianbei royal family.

Shen Huaizhi showed an expression that was difficult to describe. "He and Da Xitai are half-brothers. After Ashile's father died, his mother became the favorite concubine of the Xianbei king at that time."

"And according to their rumors, his father's death must have been complicated, but I can't find out the details."

Sheng Changan thought thoughtfully, "Is this favorite concubine still alive?"

"Alive, at least until I leave."

This now confirmed her guess even more. The reason why Da Xitai suddenly came out to massacre the city was probably because he was instigated by them.
